Hello, grab a snack, sit back, and allow me to regale you with the many exciting yarns you will find contained within!

Firstly, I am an artist of multiple media.. ..a multimedia artist, if you will. Sculpting, Drawing, Writing, Sketching, Costuming, Pixeling, Wood-burning, Henna, Cooking, Singing, Carving.. if there is a way to be creative, I can probably appreciate it and love doing it. Right now, I am in classes to further my education and get out of IT. Thinking about doing HVAC.

I am also a retro-gamer and play NES, MAME, SEGA, and PSX games mostly. Although I must admit, the Wii is more fun than I ever expected, and the Nintendo DS is probably the only system out there for gamers that want games with a retro-feel. I also enjoy board games in groups, but I don't really care about winning. Apples to Apples and Loaded Questions are both pretty awesome with a good smart group of people.

I have been back in the Twin Cities for a few months now. I love comics, movies, Sci-Fi, D&D and other geeky things. I LARP (Live-Action Role Play) on the weekends, basically running around the woods beating up friends with foam swords, it's pretty fun, and great exercise! I'm really not interested in hanging out with all of the hardcore geeks everyday but seeing them once in a while is pretty damn fun. Same goes with Renfest. A couple of weekends a year is pretty ****ing cool, but DAYUM, come on guys? Seriously??

I am an IT contractor, so I tend to stay in a lot. My workday is over before most people have finished lunch, and I love that. I do not watch TV. Like.. at all. I have a TV, but I do not get any channels. I use the Netflix Channel on Wii and watch movies. I just can't stand being yelled at by advertisers trying to sell me sh*t that I don't want and can't afford.

Really, TV? Really? If I dont give my kids Juicy Juice brand fruit juice from concentrate then I don't love my kids? Well, I will have to get some now because Juicy Juice and TV told me too. What? It doesnt even make sense.

Yeah, I'm kind of a bad ass. If you aren't into this level of badassery, you should probably move along, because I might be too much for you to handle.
